Married At First Sight (Australia) - General Discussion

[kristen111]

The constant loud annoying background music on this show is too much.  Let me hear them speak.

[Boo Boo]

Am I the only one who finds Tamara ugly?  Those horrible over inflated lips, weird shaped face? I also think Tamara and Dominica look like each other.

People have been ripping on Tamara for months so no. I mean people that already saw the show. But, Dominica is stunningly unattractive to me. Props to the show for giving her a regular Joe looking dude instead of stud because that dude more than likely would have left her at the alter.

Poor Holly. Andrew is vile, and I cannot believe that they ALL sided with him.

Also, not understanding the Mitch attraction around here. He looks like an extra from Beverly Hills 90210.

Anthony is the best looking to me, and he seems like a decent person. 

[Kiss my mutt]

I was kind of surprised that Jack was complaining that Domenica wasn’t aggressive enough in bed because she sure came out with guns blazing. I thought she was going to devour him. I think a lot of her bravada must have been an act because she comes off as rather demure and old fashioned. There doesn’t seem to be much there “there” though to them. I couldn’t tell you one thing about them except he’s a model.  
 

The cracks are starting to show between Domenica and Jack. He is such an odd bird with a maniacal laugh. My heart goes out to Holly. She seems so apologetic for not being white and to put her with someone who wants a white girl, especially with her fragility seems unapologetically cruel. I wondered for a while if Cody was on the wrong show or wrong season and still do. It looks like he’s going for the physical relationship but I know I couldn’t be with someone who has told me in no uncertain terms he doesn’t find me attractive, even if he qualified it later on.  I do hope she doesn’t settle for less than.

I thought it was appalling.  They had all seen how he behaved at the commitment ceremony, they know that he is a public motivational speaker, and yet they all just lapped up the crock that he was spreading.  And now Olivia is going to call her out next week?  It’s unbelievable

Question- if Carolina had her son at 15, and he is 16, how is she 34? Also, her makeup was terrifying. I couldn’t figure out which was from the makeup artist and which was after she ‘fixed’ it. Yikes- Groucho Marks had nothing on those brows.

yeah, that she could be so concerned about her makeup and then it turned out like that with her doing it?

3 hours late? nope, very incosiderate

as much as i disliked him from his intro showing off his car and riches, nope, he didn't deserve that

should be interesting

Did everyone give up on this scripted show?  I’ve forgotten their names.  Poor Anthony putting his feet on the coffee table.  She didn’t want him from the beginning.  Keep sipping your drink.  I love the new couple, especially the girl who lost her Sister to breast cancer.  She cooked him a lovely meal, and he went nuts on her for no reason.  Then, at the ceremony, that busy body slammed the poor girl so she had to change her seat.  What did she do to upset him so?  Why were they all against her?  SCRIPTED for drama.  I’m disgusted.

[rlc]

Jessica is a petulant child, and why is her hair a different length every time I see her? Kate has been single (and will remain so) for a good reason. Not that I think being in a relationship is the be all and end all (I’m very happily divorced), but I think she and her twin need therapy, not fake tv marriages. Carolina needs to learn that sometimes it’s best to say nothing- she was beyond rude to Dion. Selin is not likable. 

[eclectcmoi]

Agree with you @rlc about Jessica's behavior and her changing hair length. She almost looks like a different person when she isn't in make up with the clip in (I'm assuming) hair extensions. I really don't see what Daniel did to make her turn on him so quickly and start calling him names, especially to the other couples. I liked that Dominica called her out. Gotta get the drama started somehow. 

Kate... does she even have a personality?  All I see is a blank expression and no life in her at all.  What is there for Matthew to be so gaga over her?  Just not seeing it.  

As for the others... Al and Samantha are pretty cute together.  Selin is so much work and not worth it at all.  Cracks are appearing in the already fragile Selina and Cody relationship.  

Scripted or not... I'm enjoying this version of MAFS.

Now I remember how the disconnect started.  After their wedding, while sitting outside their room, Jessica said how she wanted a real wedding with guests and family.  Daniel didn’t go for the idea as he has no family anymore except his niece and sister in law.  His Brother committed suicide.  Daniel became distant, and Jessica couldn’t understand why.  They both had a point, but didn’t discuss it.  She wanted a big real wedding and he did not.

Anyone know why there is no show tonight?

Dominica is a busy body troublemaker.  Btw.

Edited June 8, 2022 by kristen111

[rlc]

Daniel wasn't mad because Jessica wanted a big wedding- he was mad because she said that she would do things differently when she got married 'for real'.

Is Lifetime just going to dump this show in the middle?

[rlc]

It was moved to a different Lifetime channel, LRW. There was a new episode last night.

Sorry, no snark intended just thought you might know.

I looked it up on Google and apparently it's Lifetime Real Women which on u-verse is a super premium channel only available at their very highest tier.

Well that’s nice .. NOT.  My cable company “Optimum” is no longer carrying that show.  WTF?  They only carry Lifetime, period.  Guess I’ll have to pay somewhere?  So disgusted.  Was dying to see what happened with Daniel and Jessica.

[glitterpussy]

What on earth?? I couldn't find this LRW anywhere on anything I have  (I'm in San Diego).  I'm pissed!

ETA: In case this helps anyone, I can watch them on the Lifetime app and/or via AppleTV,  if I log in with my Direct TV account. Only with commercials though, which may be a deal breaker.

Thanks, I have u-verse so I'll try the Lifetime app and/or Apple tv.

I have no idea why they would buy this from the Australian broadcaster & then bury it where virtually nobody can find it or see it.

[Tayllor]

I wasn't able to get any additional episodes on any of the channels I have access to (I'm in San Diego and have U-verse). But I noticed a few pages back on this message board, someone mentioned being able to watch on shvideos.net - I have been watching all the episodes on that site and there are no commercials!

[Kiss my mutt]

I have Lifetime on Hulu and the last episode was the Meet the Parents one. Is that the last one everyone else has?

Ive watched the other seasons on shvideos.net but my internet is kinda shitty so it keeps reloading and starting over. I’ll have to give it another shot though. 
 

[Yeah No]

I don't even watch this show, but I found all this season's episodes so far including those that weren't shown on regular Lifetime on the Lifetime Real Women site here:

https://play.mylifetime.com/shows/married-at-first-sight-australia#episodes

I had to enter my Xfinity/Comcast username and password to view episodes, though.  But LRW isn't even carried by Xfinity/Comcast so that's interesting.  If you get regular Lifetime you might be able to use your cable provider login to see them.

I think just pulling and moving it mid season to something even Comcast doesn't carry is nasty.  This channel is becoming more low-life every day.

[eclectcmoi]

Well I guess I'm screwed. Thanks Lifetime for hooking me and then wanting me to pay.  Scabbers! 

[Chatty Cake]

I’m annoyed. The show wasn’t great but it was something. The regulnar Lifetime is pushing all these MAFS spin offs and next week is a look back at Boston. Who wants to look back on that? Once was enough.

[rlc]

Crap! Does that mean I'm the only one left watching this? I refuse to watch US-MAFS (or any of its 7 million iterations anymore). Some not at all surprising developments in the latest episode.

Carolina is 100% not interested in Dion, but chose to stay to give it a chance (perhaps with a different contestant?).

Jess and Daniel both choose to stay, and then Jess leaves as soon as they arrive at the apartment which leaves Daniel...hitting on Carolina. Hmmmmm.

Mitch never should have gone on this show if he has such strong issues with other people observing/commenting on their relationship, and he doesn't like drama.

I may still watch it but haven't seen the latest episodes yet.

Lifetime app should be free to anyone with a cable account, just use your cable account info.

Looks like I am out too.  It must be getting horrible ratings if they’re moving it mid-season.  I can’t imagine Lifetime gets great ratings in general anyway, but moving something like this midway just makes no sense.  Follow the money, I guess.

I find Australia better than MAFS.  It’s different, and I like it more.  The American one is overkill.

[ShowsILoveToHate]

Thanks for all of the info, everyone! I never would’ve found it if I hadn’t read about it here!
 

Never heard of LRW, and it doesn’t appear anywhere on any of our channels, including all of the stupid channels we have (Included with either our cable company Xfinity or included with our cell service Verizon Wireless, or ones we pay for like Disney+, etc).  
 

😤😠😡🤬

[Racj82]

I use Philo. 20 dollars a month. 16 for me since I've been with them since before they upped the charge. My dvr recorded up until ep 16 which was the first Dinner party with the three new couples. I see that the next two episodes are on vod since this past friday at midnight. I got lucky earlier this year. Most of the season was youtube. I watched all up until that final getaway they always do.

I'll keep an eye on if more episodes are added.

Domenica being in everyone's business and this constant judgment against men for not being emotionless robots are by far the worst parts of this season. That and how the show failed Holly.

YES.  I went on for a minute and saw it was on there, but I couldn’t watch yet as I had a few doctors appts this week and couldn’t catch up on things.  I will go back on shvideos.net and see what’s going on and if I have to pay or what.  I really want to see the rest, so will probably pay if I have to.  Thanks for posting that.  I’ll let everyone know the particulars.  👍😀.

I have Optimum and can access it on Demand.

I found it rather interesting that Daniel was able to get in touch with his crush Carolina before he left. 

I was surprised that Ella has such low self esteem, because she appeared to be quite confident. To be a fly on the wall when the other couples hear what Nick said about them.
